Asplund elevates his line mates? 

Im shocked. Hopefully that’s the end of Asplund being rotated out

I've always liked Asplund. Even now he is one of our better two way players. I know you and most others disagree with me but I don't see this rotation hurting him and the team.

Their color guy, Mickey Redmond, is clearly a Wings fan but he recognizes good hockey when he sees it and he's not afraid to say so.  I lived in Detroit six years and became a Red Wings fan (I'd lost touch with Buffalo sports in the pre-Center Ice/Sunday Ticket era), and I always enjoyed Mickey  He's an old school hockey guy like Jim Lorentz.

Big difference from a few years ago when they stars strong but really it was hot goaltending

poor Power, how many bad bounces is he going to get.

The shortie tonight was not on him.  He played the pass perfectly and broke it up.  Granato will tell him to do it exactly the same way next time.  With a little experience he will learn how to deaden it or deflect it into the corner but I don't see that goal on him in the slightest.  If anything, I blame Cozens for not keeping up with his man which is what created the 2-on-1.

To demonstrate how deceiving plus/minus can be, Tage had six points and was only a plus 3

Sabres have a shot at NHL history against the Pens Wednesday...

They can become the only team ever to have 4 straight games with 45+ shots on goal.

Would be pretty awesome to get that after Dahlin set the NHL goal record for defensemen to open a season.

Check out Dahlin's reaction in the background

I think Tage has learned that with his long reach he can be simultaneously everywhere within a 10 foot radius.

The rotation will continue as long as all forwards are healthy.  We've got (stay with me, I know it sounds weird) more than enough NHL talent at the forward positions right now.

He's got two goals.

Missed it live, but... good game.

I'm thinking I'm starting to realize that Tager is Chewbacca, making Skinner the Solo figure. It might all still make sense.

Well I guess the whole "what's wrong with Thompson" thing is over isn't it.

Maybe lost in the obvious, I thought we played much better team defense than we usually do and it was very encouraging. Good puck possession but we kept skating, got in the passing lanes, back checked, and basically frustrated them and didn't let them play their game. Well coached and executed gameplan. 

Also lost in the Thompson show, I thought that was Quinn's best game as a Sabre. Good shot on the goal. Good hit on Raymond. Solid game for him. Big step forward.  

Krebs on the other hand a big meh. Asplund should not go back to the press box. 

Fans getting into it at the end. This sort of game will go a long way to bringing them back.

The best outtake going to commercial??… The Detroit Goaltender using his stick as a sledgehammer to the top of his net… then throwing it down hard on the ice in frustration… Would have paid to be in that locker room to hear what he had to say…

The Detroit HF board is a fun read.

Hate to say it, but Stevie messed up this past Summer. First, bringing in a coach who employs an overly defensive boring style (look how the young guys are thriving in Montreal under St.Louis), then signing guys like Chiarot and Copp who with a healthy line up make the team just good enough to probably miss the 5-6 potential #1 C's at next year's draft but not good enough to make the playoffs .

Expand  

Always said they had a bad offseason, Copp is a bottom 6 C.

  Quote

trade copp .. that 5.6 mill contract is gonna bite us in the ass hard .. larkin over here making 6.1 .. he should be getting 12 mill per if copp gets 5.6 lol

Expand  

Maybe a bit overreacting like us after the Seattle game.   But Stevie Y overreached this summer with certain players.
